Genuine Savings and the Voracity Effect

, 2007
Many resource-rich countries have negative genuine saving rates, so deplete their exhaustible natural resource wealth faster than they build up wealth in other assets. This phenomenon is stronger in more fractionalized countries with poor legal systems. We explain this by a power struggle about the control of natural resources.

Disintegration, Salvation, and/or Madness in Dostoevsky

International Journal of Applied Psychoanalytic Studies, Volume 23, Issue 1, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Psychological fragmentation and derangement suffuse Dostoevsky's fiction. This paper argues that the madness of Dostoevsky characters derives from intense wounds to the self: humiliating lacerations that impel fugue and disintegration. Such vulnerable, frangible characters seek to escape and deny themselves to avoid being seen for who they are.

Assessment of Bone Regeneration in Rabbit Calvarial Defects Treated With Mineralized Collagen–Based Scaffolds Using In Vivo MicroCT and Three‐Dimensional Rendering

Current Protocols, Volume 6, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract Cranial bone regeneration requires coordinated interactions among host cells, extracellular matrices, and the local biomechanical environment to restore both mineralized tissue and structural protection of the brain. Mineralized collagen–glycosaminoglycan (MC–GAG) scaffolds recapitulate key features of native bone matrix and have demonstrated ...

Mammal defaunation leads to biotic homogenization of plant communities in tropical rainforests

Ecology, Volume 107, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract Biotic homogenization is the process in which species communities become increasingly similar across different regions over time. This phenomenon has substantial ecological, evolutionary, and economic implications, primarily driven by human activities such as habitat destruction, invasive species introduction, and climate change.

On the Heterochrony and Evolution of Oral Structures in Phyllopharyngean Ciliates (Protista: Ciliophora)

Journal of Experimental Zoology Part B: Molecular and Developmental Evolution, Volume 346, Issue 2, Page 91-106, March 2026.
Ontogenetic sequences in phyllopharyngean ciliates. ABSTRACT Heterochronic shifts in developmental sequences of unicellular organisms are rarely considered as mechanisms behind their morphological evolution. Among eukaryotic microbes, ciliates represent a key model group, exhibiting diverse morphologies and developmental trajectories.
